Super Welterweights: Mike McCallum vs John Mugabi

Post by scorpio83 »

Would a prime Mike McCallum stop the Beast in either the early or late stoppage in their junior middleweight match up? I say yes and Mugabi would be worn down after trying to knock McCallum's great chin with his devastating overhand right? What do you guys think?

McCallum at 154 would stop anyone.

The great Mike McCallum wins this one. He was a very underrated boxer and complete fighter.

Yeh have to agree. McCallum was consistently brilliant and consistently ignored by big name fighters like Eubank and Benn. He was too good for his own good. Mugabi on the other hand only showed brilliance in gallantly losing to Hagler and was never the same after that loss. McCallum wins by kayo.

huge mismatch between a great fighter and a rather overrated fighter who beat pretty much no one

I'd pick very few fighters to beat a prime McCallum at 154.
McCallum wins this by very wide decision

McCallum schools the Powerful African by either late round stoppage or Un Dec.
